    Strawmen? Are you kidding me. I have this argument multiple times a year with shitstains who think it’s acceptable to join the military to escape hardship.

      Real, honest question here: how are they defining “hardship”? That’s a huge range of subjective circumstances there.

      To be clear, I’m not going to fire back by saying “well, that’s justifiable”. Rather, I’m curious where said “shitstains” are coming from and how they frame their choices. I only have the broad strokes here, and would love some more nuance to this story, however anecdotal. Cheers.

        I didn’t draw the cartoon, and why would I make a meme dedicated to calling out a specific internet user when it’s a larger societal issue?

        You are so bad at arguing, please just stop replying to all my posts on Lemmy it’s painful to read.

            That’s not what a strawman is and I will add that this point of view is a very common and a less extreme example than the worst I’ve heard.
